I have a 55 gal and a 10 gal. Having had some problems with ich, the tanks are fish fallow. I do, however, have some soft corals in both tanks and some SPS in the 55. The softies include a green toadstool, Fiji Gold leather, kenya tree, cauliflower (not sure on the exact species), zoanthids, mushrooms, some nicely coloured ricordia florida and a sympodium. The LPS include torch, green frogspawn, blasto merleti, fox and candy cane.

hey thats sweet sorry to hear about the ich , but it sounds like you got it under control.are you running a sump and skimmer??

[Katie3G]

No sump. I have a skimmer on the 55. The 55 has 4 54 watt T5 bulbs, canister filter and one powerhead (I am about to get another powerhead). The 10 has power compact lighting and a hang on filter.

well i just finished putting the tank together yesterday and i will be doing the overflow here asap......finished product will be a zoanthid dominated cube havent thought on livestock yet ive always been one to keep it down to a minimum so i would guess a pair of clowns more then likely cinnamon clowns and a pair of bangai cardinals maybe a mandarin if i can make it to the 1 year mark

im going to be setting up some frag tanks as well will be mostly zoas and lps so theres some plans in the works to be had here soon theres a new reef club in the city it just started and i will be going wed evening plus it seems alot of new people are joing this site from here so thats always good too

Yeah, it's great to see people from Newfoundland on here and I hope we get to see more from them. Just a reminder to all that we now have a reef club (meeting this Wednesday at the Newfoundland Hotel at 7 PM in the bar!) and a reef club blog at nlreefers.blogspot.com so join up, send us some pics of your tank(s) and I'll put them up with everyone else's (just mine currently, haha). Great to see more involvement from the Rock!

[Katie3G]

Reefwars, a tank of zoa's sounds very nice. I love the brightly coloured zoa's. Unforuntately they seem difficult to obtain. Where are you planning on getting your zoa's?

I don't have any photos of my tanks yet. Perhaps in the near future - but no promises.

that reminds me to going to Aguarium Fanatics (local LFS) they were located next to Chess's Fish and Chip take-out always had a chuckle at that (sorry off topic)
